  • I have added this video to my Plants and Flowers Vegetables Inc; Shrubs Playlist. A selection you may find interesting . Gerry Broad GVB1939. Peace And Love Man

  • I am glad that you added it! I will come see your playlist! Blessings! Melissa

  • Wonderful video. I am reading that the cockspur is a little more resilient than other erythrina species. For example you could grow it in southern Oregon. It is interesting that a lot of members of the pea family have thorns

  • Thank you! I think it is more resilient for the fact that it can actually handle a couple hours of 20 degree weather..but does good if in a southern exposure in inter.. and, being in the Fabacaea family, do you think the thorns are on account of the subclass Rosidae?

  • a southern exposure in Winter... is what i meant to type... and wow! you posted it on your channel! Thanks so much.! More people should know about this plant. This is the only one Ive ever found in Walton County....

  • I looked up the subclass Rosidae and it includes both the pea family and rose family. What surprised me that even includes the Crassula family which consists of jade plants and dudleyas.

  • isnt that amazing??!!! Do they all have thorns?

  • Rosidae is a big family and many of its members have thorns. Many of the trees in the pea family have thorns but not all of them. Rosewood (Dalbergia) does not have thorns and I don't think the Russian pea shrub behind my house has thorns either. Of course plants like the acacia and the mesquite have lots of thorns

  • that was the most intense home and garden like viedeo ive ever seen. and that plant scares me. it has lobster death claws or something on it.

  • Like it huh? yeah, it is kinda scary... and you always make me lol! Thanks for commenting on my vids... melissa

  • LOL!I did this one myself and the audio wasnt very good to start with, so i added the music.. but sounds better towards the end. SO! Yes, in our zone 7, it grows like a perennial. It dies down to the ground for the winter. But, it is actually a tree in the warmer zones... I had a fit when i found it! Ya just dont see this plant very often... Thats why i went ahead and filmed it myself with my lil SONY camera- that also takes video... Thanks for inquiring! melissa

  • cool looking plant!

    it was hard to hear tho it sounds like a techno bongo or something echoing.

    does it grow as a tree or more like a perennial plant?
